I see where you get your gorgeous blue eyes from, Jessica! Your beautiful mom...or as she is referred to lovingly a lot on this blog, "Grandma Dorrie". ☺
I got pulled over recently for failing to switch lanes when there was a cop on the side of the road. I had never heard that I was supposed to do that before...so he chased me down...luckily he just gave me a warning. I also think he stopped me because I had Georgia plates and was driving in North Carolina.
The twins are getting big! I remember a picture of them that looked like they were in the NICU. Looks like they are healthy and strong. ☺
You totally made me think I can road trip with my kids. Mario remains doubtful. It was so so so so great to see you, and equally great that ll the kids in that last piture aren't actually all ours! :)
Why did my comment on your previous post not show up? I promise it wasn't inappropriate...
That looks fun and gives me hope for a LONG road trip. Can't wait to see the post on how you kept the kids entertained the whole time in the car.
Oh you look so darn cute in my white coat at Mt Rushmore!! Love that, sometimes I forget what I send and then I love seeing it on you. Sounds like such a fun trip! Come read my blog and updates girly!!
